I'm about to get an SLI setup together and I'm somewhat concerned about my PCIe lane count. With the SLI setup, I'll have two graphics cards, one RAID card, and one Firewire card in my board.
The graphics cards will run (I assume) on 8 lanes each, though they both support x16. The RAID card uses PCIe 2.0 x8. The Firewire card is x1, I believe.
Will I even be able to run everything in this configuration or am I already out of PCIe lanes on my Maximus V Extreme (Z77)?
